[Q] Messages in Call logs - Galaxy S 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

I have recently bought Galaxy S5 and have Lollipop. I don't know if its the phone or the software that is causing the trouble.
Basically when i go to call logs, it also gives me log of text messages which is fine by me, but the problem is you can actually see what was written on the text. Is there a way to disable that feature, i don't mind mind having a log of text messages but to display the text that is annoying.
Anyone knows how to disable that?

i seem to have the opposite problem...sometimes i dont get a message notification...e.g. the message tone doesn't sound and the new message isn't highlighted on the home screen.
I only know i have a message if i happen to see the screen wake-up or manually go to my inbox where then the tone will sound and the new message will be displayed. However this doesnt always happen but id say 25% of the time if not a bit more. Very annoying and inconvinient
Me too have the same problem with bknewtype.
This is annoying because if i dont wake up the phone, i wont know that a message have arrived.
It makes me miss an important appointment 1 time.
Can anyone tell me anything about this problem?

[Q] Weird on-call issues. Need help!

Hey, guys:
In my contacts, I'll have most of my contacts' picture synced with their Facebook account. Their picture shows up while scrolling through my contacts and is in the small window when you select their information. However, whenever they call you or you dial them, their big picture doesn't show up when they're on the call. Their picture shows up as the default avatar. Anyone else have this problem or know of a fix?
Also, when I'm on a call and when someone else tries to call me, I don't have any notification that another person is trying to call me. No audio or vibration notification. Out of sheer luck if I look at my screen, I can see another call coming in. However, I don't receive any audio or vibration notification that someone is trying to call. Is there a setting to change this?
I'm running EB13 currently and am having these problems. Thanks for your help.
My only other thought is to factory restore my phone, but I'm not crazy about doing that.

[Q] Samsung Gear Live won't send text?

I got the Samsung Gear at IO (yea) and have been going through the user adjustment phase, happily have pretty much everything working (I use a Galaxy Nexus as the phone stock. I receive text and I can send emails (from the watch) but for some reason I can't send text from the watch. It says it is sent, goes through all the motions, asks for recipient, clarifies to send to the mobile number and gets the text via voice and then says it is sending and gives a success green check, but the message is lost does not show on phone hangout or messaging log, nor does the recipient get it.. Anyone have any ideas?? or is my problem unique to me?
Hidden choice message on Phone for sending text
Finally found my "missing texts.. when I was sending, the phone was opening a choice dialog to choose between Google voice or messaging, I chose messaging and checked always and all is now working, buy the way retweeting to twitter using the bunting app has a similar issue, it opens the native vs edit retweet chice, which cannot be set to default one way so you need to pull the phone out...

No Text's Notification Sound when Chat Window is Open?

On my Sprint Galaxy S5, which I just got this week, I noticed that there was no text notification sound when a new message arrives when the chat window is open. Is this for real? When i am texting someone, I do not look at the phone all the time. After I send a text, I place my phone down and wait for the whistle sound to notify me that I got a text response. This doesn't happen with my S5. I only noticed this when I actually look down and saw a whole bunch of text that came without any notification. Is there a way to fix this? I do get sound notification only when the text window is NOT open. I've look in all the settings to no avail. Anyone know how to change the settings within a file on rooted device? There's got to be a solution for the default messaging app. I do not want to use a third party messaging app.
I'm on Sprint Galaxy s5 4.4.4 by the way. It's rooted with towelroot and everything else is stock NK4.

Galaxy S10+ annoyance - text audio notification

Is there any way around this annoyance? (app, setting, etc)
My Samsung Galaxy S10+ native text message app Samsung Messages Version 12.2.10.31 will not give me audio notifications for subsequent messages in an open conversation.
I tried Verizon Messenger app and this has the same problem.
After googling, this is not a bug but a feature; EVERYONE has the same problem. Samsung programmed the phone FORCING you to sit there staring at your phone waiting for a response to a text. You are not able to set your phone down to wait for an audio notification.
There must be a way to program around this annoyance.
